Cross-posted from K-8 main... Hi all! I haven't posted in quite a while, but am just checking in to see if there are any grammar options I might not have already considered. I just graduated my oldest (HS all the way through with WTM, YAY!). Last year, with a senior, a move, a death in the extended family and all the other craziness of life, DD's grammar studies sort of fell by the wayside. She used FLL through 5th grade, then Abeka. We liked FLL because of the format which seemed to work well for her given her vision issues. She does read well, and enjoys reading books by sight for fun. But it is a strain and is very slow (most reading is via audiobooks). I'm not asking about vision therapy (thank you, but she is not a candidate). Just wondering if there's anything out there which would allow her to work independently and doesn't have very small print or cluttered-looking pages which contribute to eye strain and fatigue. I would be willing to consider video or computer-based options (she uses Phonetic Zoo and Teaching Textbooks and Apologia Science with audio) but would like to keep the cost down as much as possible. Any ideas? -

Looking for any good Latin books or music CDs on tape or DVD for my children to be immersed by listening to the language more. I know there are some apps but we don't have access to many of those. Thanks for any suggestions! -
Does anyone have a good recommendation for songs to learn multiplication facts and/or addition facts? My VSL/dyslexic 8 year old needs all the help he can get. -
Anyone know if History of the Ancient World is available on audio, or if it will become available? It looks like Middle Ages is, and Ancients comes first, darn it. Please, I'm begging you, we have to make use of car time, and one can only listen to so much Latin vocabulary at a time. I sent this question via the company contact form as well, but I'm impatient. Whoever answers first gets cyber cookies and a million imaginary bonus points. -
Looking for some resources on K-3 math on audio (MP3 or CD). We have Story of the World on CD, and it is amazing to see how my 6 yr old son can listen to it for 1hr+ while building Legos, and still retain what he's heard. I was wondering if there was anything out there that would be a similar quality as SOTW (i.e. best-in-class, popular with folks pursuing a classical approach) but for math (arthimetic drills, skip counting, etc.). This is just supplementary and not intended to be a primary tool. My interest is just in response to how much I see our son able to listen attentively and retain the information with SOTW. There are a number of math CDs I see out there for sale, but not sure if any are good or not.

Hello, Some for you may be familiar with my Latinum podcast. Over the summer, I have been working on an audio-visual Latin course, that is grammar intensive, yet teaches Latin through only using Latin. It is aimed at complete beginners, and would, I believe, be suitable for children, and adult students. Even quite advanced students are using it, as the course teaches through Latin, doing a lot to activate the language and re-program the brain to think in Latin, using a varied sequence of little dialog sequences. Declensions and verbs etc are examined in Latin. The course has a lot of interactivity, loads of props, lots of repetition, and a fun dinosaur glove puppet. So far, I have uploaded 130 short lessons. Some lessons will need to be listened to a few times, others only once. And all this is totally free. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/user/evan1965
